Compared to the bustling atmosphere when Ling Bai first entered, the Shrek Academy Outer Court was unusually quiet at night. The enrollment of new students had concluded, and the older students, after completing their daily courses, were all meditating in their dormitories, diligently cultivating their soul power.
On their way, they did not encounter a single student, only the occasional patrolling teacher. Fifteen minutes later, the group arrived at the Sea God Lake. The lake's surface was gently rippling, the shimmering waves slowly spreading. Unlike the gemstone-like blue of the daytime, the Sea God Lake at night, illuminated by the soul-conducting lamps, exuded a sense of tranquility and mystery.
Zhang Lexuan scanned the six new students and said with a smile, "We are all inner court students, so crossing the Sea God Lake should be no problem, right?"
"Don't underestimate us, Senior Sister!"
The auxiliary soul master girl pouted her red lips, as if they could hold a bottle of oil, and the others echoed her, complaining that Zhang Lexuan didn't treat them like inner court students.
"Alright, I'll wait for you on the other side."
Zhang Lexuan rose into the air without releasing her soul power or soul rings, disappearing like a gentle breeze.
"Senior Sister must be at least a Soul Saint, right?"
The plant soul master boy speculated.
"Perhaps she's a Soul Douluo." The most beautiful girl with short emerald hair said softly.
"Who cares about Senior Sister's cultivation level, let's go!"
The auxiliary soul master girl took out a pink, wing-shaped soul-conducting device, strapped
it on her back, and clasped her hands in front of her chest, muttering, "Peach blossoms smile beyond the fence!"
"Soul Conductor Propeller, Food Soul Master?"
Only Food Soul Masters needed to chant soul incantations when using soul skills. Ling Bai showed interest, as a combination of Soul Conductor and Food Soul Master was quite impressive.
"Second soul skill, Light Body Small Peach!"
The Food Soul Master girl called out, and a red, ripe peach appeared. She ate it in a few bites and waved to the others, "I'll go first, everyone!"
A rumbling sound echoed as the Soul Conductor Propeller spewed out two pink light flames, carrying her like a meteor toward the opposite shore.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"Soul-conducting devices are really convenient. I should get one someday." The plant soul master boy murmured to himself, watching the pink meteor.
In the next second, a green blur flashed past him, it was the emerald-haired beauty.
She had already released her soul power, a green, diamond-shaped scale appearing on her forehead. Her alluring body seemed to become boneless, her legs merging into a long, emerald-green snake tail.
"Emerald Phosphorus Snake..."
Ling Bai recognized this soul power.
Before leaving, she gave Ling Bai a meaningful glance.
"Brothers, we can't be left behind by the girls!"
The plant soul master boy was not to be outdone. A thin, blue-purple vine grew from his palm, emitting a faint aura of life. The vine had two yellow and two purple soul rings.
Ghost Vine!
"First soul skill, Growth!"
The first soul ring flickered, and the Ghost Vine in the boy's hand rapidly extended. Some aquatic plants grew on the Sea God Lake, and the Ghost Vine wrapped around one, using it as leverage to launch him across the lake like a meteor.
"Brother Chu, you're injured. Do you need help?"
The most muscular boy in the group approached Chu Qingtian and asked.
"No, no."
Chu Qingtian waved him off, "It's just a minor injury, nothing serious. Crossing the lake is the first test given by Senior Sister. Your help would only backfire."
"Alright."
The boy trusted Chu Qingtian and turned to Ling Bai, extending his hand, "Tai Xing, soul power: Strong Gorilla."
"Hello."
Ling Bai shook his hand. Tai Xing's palm was broad and warm, clearly belonging to a soul master with abundant vitality.
Chu Qingtian laughed and patted Tai Xing's muscular chest, "Brother Ling, Tai Xing has been my roommate in the outer court for six years and is my best friend."
"Tai surname, Strong Gorilla..."
Ling Bai's golden eyes narrowed, "One of the four single-attribute clans of the Tang Sect?"
"It's in the past."
Tai Xing grinned, his voice deep and resonant, "When the Sun Moon Continent collided with the Tang Sect Continent, the Tang Sect's Hidden Weapons were thoroughly outclassed by soul-conducting devices. After that, the Tang Sect gradually declined. The ancestor of the Force Clan, along with the ancestors of the other three clans, proposed abandoning Hidden ons and transitioning to soul-conducting devices.
However, the Tang Sect's leader firmly believed that Hidden Weapons were the foundation of the Tang Sect and rejected their proposal. Disappointed, the four ancestors, after numerous failed attempts to persuade, ultimately decided to part ways with the Tang Sect."
"Brother Ling, what about the events ten thousand years ago...?"
Chu Qingtian asked tentatively, suddenly remembering that ten thousand years ago, the Six- Winged Angel, representing the Soul Temple, and the Strong Gorilla, representing the Tang Sect, were mortal enemies. He was concerned that this might make Ling Bai hostile toward
Tai Xing.
If Ling Bai, such a formidable individual, were to target Tai Xing, his life in the inner court
would be miserable!
"It's all in the past."
Ling Bai said lightly.
Before he had absolute strength and influence, challenging the Soul Temple would be suicide.
Moreover, strictly speaking, Ling Bai was just an outsider from another world. He didn't even know why he had awakened with the Six-Winged Angel and Death Prison Spider Emperor soul powers. The true inheritor of the Six-Winged Angel lineage was Ye Guyi.
"Yes, it's all in the past."
Tai Xing shrugged and sighed, "Tang Ya even approached me, hoping I would rejoin the Tang Sect, but I refused. Who would have thought that the four single-attribute clans and the Tang Sect would become estranged again after ten thousand years.
The grudges and enmities from ten thousand years ago don't need to be passed down to our generation. Besides, after seeing Brother Chu get beaten up, I definitely don't want to be an enemy of the Six-Winged Angel..."
"Are you trying to rub salt in my wound, you brat!" Chu Qingtian pretended to be furious. Tai Xing had a rough but thoughtful demeanor. Seizing the opportunity, Ling Bai asked, "By the way, who is that Emerald Phosphorus Snake girl?"
"You mean Dugu Lin!"
Tai Xing leaned back slightly, his dark face contorting as if Dugu Lin were a taboo. "As you can see, her soul power is the Emerald Phosphorus Snake. She is a descendant of the Poison Douluo Dugu Bo from ten thousand years ago, skilled in using poisons and unpredictable. Don't underestimate her; in the entire Shrek Academy Outer Court, she ranks first in combat strength. Both Brother Chu and I have been defeated by her Emerald Phosphorus Snake's poison."
"Brothers, we can't keep chatting. If we fall too far behind, we'll lose face when we enter the
inner court. Let's go!"
Chu Qingtian interrupted them, his feet surrounded by electric light. In terms of pure speed, he feared no one, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"Brother Ling, I'm off!"
Tai Xing, with his Strong Gorilla soul power, had the most violent way of moving. He leaped,
clenched his fists, and pounded the lake surface, using the force to propel himself forward!
Chu Qingtian, starting later, quickly caught up and soon surpassed the Food Soul Master girl, seeing the slender back of the Emerald Phosphorus Snake, Dugu Lin, in the distance.
He looked back; the water spouted where Tai Xing was, and the plant soul master boy was
shooting out vines from his fingertips.
Where was Ling Bai?
"Looking for me?"
A teasing voice suddenly sounded above him. Chu Qingtian instinctively looked up and saw
Ling Bai with his angelic wings spread, standing tall and smiling, his golden hair blown back
by the howling wind, the moonlight making him look like a jade statue.
"Angels are so cool..."
Chu Qingtian, for the first time, thought walking on water was lame!
